Abstract:
Titanium carbide（TiC） reinforced iron（Fe） based composite powder with a multi-core structure was electrochemically prepared directly from high titanium slag and carbon powder.The electrochemical reaction pathways for the sintered piece of the slag and carbon were investigated by examination of the partially and fully reduced samples using XRD and SEM-EDS analyses.The reduction process of the sintered piece of high titanium slag and carbon can be divided into two main stages.The first stage is the electrochemical reduction of the high titanium slag,leading to the formation of Fe,titanium monoxide（TiO） and calcium titanate（CaTiO₃）.The second stage is a transformation process of TiO→TiC_xO_1-x→TiC.The ratio of high titanium slag to carbon powder affects the final composition of the products,and the increase in carbon powder addition can increase the TiC content of the final products.

Abstract(13) PDF(1)

Abstract:
Effects of quicklime digestion behavior on the granulation of the vanadium titano-magnetite concentrate were investigated by using micro-drum granulation equipment.The results show that there exist great difference in the particle size distribution index（PDI） of different kinds of quicklime after hydration with water.The main reasons for the great difference of PDI are chemical composition and mineral structure.The PDI has positive correlations with the granulation index（GI）,uniformity index（UI）,and resistance index of the thermal disintegration（KI）,but has negative correlations with the damage index（DI） of vanadium titanium magnetite concentrate.The effect of PDI on the DI is comparatively low for low-titanium magnetite concentrate compared with the other two concentrates.The quicklime with high particle size distribution index is good for its uniform distribution in the sinter mixture.The heat from hydration action of the quicklime can make the lime particles in the quasi-particles shrunk,and the particles in the quasi-particles are bonded more tightly and the isotropic thermal stress is more balanced,which is beneficial to the improvement of the hot property of the quasi-particles.

Abstract:
The difficulty in developing the HRB500 E hot-rolled ribbed steel bars is not only to satisfy the high strength,but also ensure that the ratio of tensile/yield strength required for seismic resistance is greater than or equal to 1.25.Some domestic steel mills utilize the VN16 alloying process to produce HRB500 E,but the ratio of tensile/yield strength(R_m/R_eL) is hard to reach 1.25.In view of the above problems,the "VN16+FeV80" V-N alloying process is added to control vanadium and nitrogen contents between 0.07%～0.11% and 0.011%～0.015%,respectively.Precipitation strengthening effect of vanadium had played its role,but on the other hand,excessive precipitation of vanadium had been avoided in order to control reasonable the R_m/R_eL.Through controlling the vanadium precipitation,HRB500 E hot rolled rebars of ø12～ø32 mm specifications had been successfully developed.

The grain oriented silicon steels with different Nb contents were prepared,and the effect of niobium on the microstructure evolution and the behaviors of second phase particles of the as-cast grain-oriented silicon steel during reheating process was studied by high-temperature confocal laser-scanning microscope（HTCLSM） and Nova 400 Nano field emission scanning electron microscope（FE-SEM）.The results show that the inclusions in all as-cast specimens are mainly complex inclusions,which takes Al₂O₃ as its core.During the cooling stage,MnS mainly precipitates in the first precipitation stage,and Nb（C,N） also precipitates in the Nb-containg specimens.And the volume fraction of the second phase particles in the first precipitation stage can be effectively increased by adding Nb,which will effectively enhance the pinning ability of the second phase particles.However,niobium has little effect on the behaviors of precipitation of AlN.Meanwhile,the homogeneity of microstructure of reheated specimens can be improved by adding Nb.

Abstract:
304 austenite stainless steels with high Al content were warm-rolled and subsequently solution-treated.The effects of Al content and deformation amount on microstructure and properties were investigated.The surface appearance and composition were analyzed by means of OM,EPMA and SEM.The results show that the alloys are composed of gray austenite phase and black ferrite phase.The precipitates consist of an enriched phase containing aluminum nitride and other carbides.With the increasing of Al content,the volume fraction of ferrite increases.The yield strengths of the alloys with 1% Al under different deformation amount are 285 MPa,266 MPa and 273 MPa,respectively.Nevertheless,the yield strengths of the alloys with 1.5% Al are 350 MPa,365 MPa and 322 MPa,respectively.The fracture surfaces of the alloys are composed of large isometric dimples（5～30 μm） and smaller dimples（≤5 μm） arranged next to each other.The fracture models belong to ductile fracture.The alloys with 1% Al have higher tensile strength,while the sample with 1.5% Al has higher yield strength.The performance indicators of the samples are improved greatly,which provides important guidance for industrial production.

Abstract:
In order to detect the effect of Mg on the inclusions in 20 CrMo gear steel,the smelting experiments of Mg addition to gear steel were carried out by using a high-temperature tube electric resistance furnace.Combined with the methods of SEM and OM,the morphology and composition of inclusions in this steel were characterized.And the change mechanisms of inclusion compositions in the steel were also investigated with thermodynamics under various Mg additions.Experimental results showed that the density of inclusions amount in steel was in range of 40～65 mm~2.With Mg content of 8×10^-6,the equivalent diameter of inclusions increased from 2.93 to 3.28 μm,whereas,with Mg content of（21～38）×10^-6,the equivalent diameter of inclusions was in range of 2.64～2.67 μm.With raising the Mg content in the steel,the percentage of single MnS inclusion reduced from 26.3% to 2.2%,while the percentage of oxides increased from 44.8% to 84.8%.Thermodynamics calculation indicated that the Mg with content of（2.63～7.98）×10^-6 could completely modify the Al₂O₃ into MgO·Al₂O₃ spinel; when Mg content is above 7.98×10^-6,MgO inclusions were generated.It is concluded that the proportion of composite inclusions at 8 ppm of Mg content was the maximum,whereas the proportion of oxides was relatively lower,which is beneficial to improving the mechanical properties of gear steel.

Abstract:
The extrusion tests of Mg-Al-Zn-Ti new titanium-containing magnesium alloy for new energy automobile profiles were carried out with different extrusion temperature,extrusion speed and extrusion ratio,and the mechanical properties were tested and analyzed.The results show that the tensile strength and yield strength of the samples increase firstly and then decrease when the extrusion temperature is increased from 300 ℃ to 400 ℃,the extrusion speed is increased from 1 m/min to 5 m/min,and the extrusion ratio is increased from 10 to 26.Compared with the results from extrusion at 300 ℃,the tensile strength and yield strength of the specimen are increased by 17% and 31%,respectively,at an extrusion temperature of 360 ℃;compared with the results of extrusion speed of 1 m/min,the tensile strength and yield strength of the samples are increased by 14% and 23%,respectively when the extrusion speed is 4 m/min.Compared with the results of extrusion ratio of 10,the tensile strength and yield strength of the samples are increased by 9% and 14%,respectively,when the extrusion ratio was increased to 22.Therefore,the extrusion process optimization parameters of the new Mg-Al-Zn-Ti titanium-containing magnesium alloy for new energy automobile profiles are the extrusion temperature of 360 ℃,extrusion speed of 4 m/min,extrusion ratio of 22.

Abstract:
In this paper the reason for falling-off of welding iron oxide scale in pickle sheet had been investigated by comparing and analyzing chemical composition,microstructure,iron oxide structure,bath depth and sheet thickness of Hansteel’s sheet for Compressor.It is found out that the thickness of iron oxide scale of Hansteel is thicker than Baosteel and the proportion of the outer layer of Fe₃O₄ is higher than Baosteel. The difference in the thickness of Fe₃O₄ directly causes the falling-off of welding iron oxide scale of Hansteel.The content of C in SPHD-YSJ is low,leading to the iron oxide scale growth more rapidly during the welding process and thicker iron oxide scale,which is beneficial to the formation of Fe₃O₄.All those are the essential for the falling-off of the iron oxide scale.When increasing C content to 0.05%-0.07% and controlling the thickness based on micro-negative tolerance or zero tolerance,the welded iron oxide scale adhesion are improved and the problem of falling-off of the iron oxide scale has been successfully eliminated.
